[comp.windows.x] X11R4 on ULTRIX 4.0

root@dime.cs.umass.edu (System PRIVILEGED Account) (07/25/90)

	Has anybody built X11R4 on a machine running ULTRIX 4.0? 
	I want to build X11R4 on a DECstation 5000 running ULTRIX 4.0.
	Before I start I want to know if there are any files or procedures
	I have to change. What will I have to be aware of? 
	Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I built a client only version last weekend (no servers, I use DEC's
server since I have a PX).  The only thing you have to do is edit
main.c for client/xterm and relace "fileno(stderr) = i;" with
"stderr->_file = i" (this is claimed to be related to POSIX compliance).
Otherwise all went well and everything works fine.
